Welcome to episode 96! In part 1 of a 3 part interview I talk with hydroplane photographer Bill Osborne. Bill has been a long time fan and photographer of hydroplane racing. In this episode we talk about where his love of the sport originated from, favorite teams and photos he has taken over the years. Bill has many interesting stories from the sport of hydroplane racing to share. Enjoy!

New chapters feature expanded profiles of Jimmy Shane, J. Michael Kelly, the Tate family, and Bill Cahill. The racing story brings readers up to date as of the end of the 2021 season. New two-page profiles add Ron Brown, Bob Carver, Sam Cole, Mike and Lori Jones, and Rich Ormbrek. To order, send a check or money order for $78 to: Bill Osborne, 106 River View Drive, Lyle, WA 98635.
